RRB roped in to conduct all departmental exams
The New Indian Express Madurai
|March 06, 2025
Over 7 crore candidates examined, says official
IN a long-overdue but essential move, the Ministry of Railways has decided to conduct all departmental promotional examinations for its 13 lakh employees through the Railway Recruitment Board (RRB), using a Computer-Based Test (CBT) system, prepared by the railway after years of sustained efforts and technical tests and advancements by the experts.
This decision was taken at a high-level meeting held on Wednesday at the Railway Board. The Ministry of Railways has developed a foolproof CBT system through sustained efforts of over the last seven years to ensure zero chances of malpractice through any form of communication during the examination.
Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw, a technocrat-turned politician, took rounds of review of the railway's indigenously developed CBT before deciding to conduct all departmental promotional examinations by RRB through the CBT system.
